Rocky, the Dog of the Day
Name: Rocky
Age: Three years old
Gender: Male Breed: Shih-Tzu
Home: Missouri, USA
 
   Rocky is a very special dog who is a Shih-Tzu champion. He can be very cuddleable or race around the house after his toys. Man's best friend doesn't cut it when it comes to Rocky, because he's almost like having a little child with his amazing characteristics and ability to understand English so well. He's a spoiled little guy, yet he manages to remember every one of his toys. Whether it's his doggy, rope, ball, toy duck, chewy, toy wolf, toy monkey, or squeaker, whichever one you say, he'll go run around the house until he finds that exact one.

    When it comes to treats, Rocky knows he has to earn it. He can sit, speak, lay down, crawl, rollover, turnaround, dance, walk (not kidding), play dead, and shake. He knows to sit by the door when he wants to go outside; to sit by his food bowl when he wants food; and if we say "who's here" he barks and runs to the door. He sleeps in our bed (remember, I said spoiled) but won't go to bed until both of us are there. If someone stays up later, he'll wait with you until you to go to bed. He is just special!
